Infantino wrote to all 211 Fifa member associations saying they would receive $40m (£30m) if they backed his controversial proposal, setting a deadline of 19 September if they wanted to access an initial $20m (£15m).
Thrive Eternal was expected to lead the proposed investor group for FFE.
Thrive is an American venture capital firm founded by Joshua Kushner – the brother of US President Donald Trump’s son-in-law Jared.
Uefa’s request for all documents regarding the investment plan, included “email, instant messages (WhatsApp, Signal, Teams, Slack or any other platform), SMS, written correspondence and meeting notes”, and those which involved “any Fifa officer, employee, committee member, consultant or agent, or any Fifa member association, confederation, broadcaster, sponsor, or financial institution”.
In reference to the 19 September deadline, Uefa added it wanted documents to be retained “relating to the payment structure for Fifa member associations, including the design, modelling, legal basis, approval and communications to member associations”.
Uefa asked Infantino to acknowledge receipt of its letter in writing within five business days, to confirm he had “received and understood this notice” and that he has “taken immediate steps to preserve relevant materials as required”.
